Dive into the action at the first-ever Italian qualifier for the Red Bull King of the Air, taking over Porto Pollo from March 10 to April 10, 2025. Secure your chance to compete at the iconic Cape Town event while soaking up epic Big Air vibes.
Hey kitefam! Got a stiff breeze and adrenaline running through your veins? Well, hold onto your wetsuits because the Red Bull King of the Air is about to throw down in a whole new way. For the first time in history, this legendary Big Air kiteboarding competition is hosting a qualifier in Italy’s gorgeous Porto Pollo, Sardinia. That’s right—March 10 to April 10, 2025, is when all hell breaks loose (in the best way possible), and you definitely want to be part of it.
Porto Pollo isn’t just some random pin on the map. This Mediterranean gem is a kiter’s dream—a potent mix of consistent winds, azure waters, and picturesque backdrops. If you’ve never been, picture this: steady winds blowing through a windsurf and kite mecca where every session feels like you’re the star of your own GoPro epic. The conditions here are so good, it’s almost unfair to other spots. And now, it’s stepping into the Big Air spotlight for one of the most exciting events on the kiteboarding calendar.
This isn’t just any qualifier. We’re talking about the golden ticket to the main event in Cape Town, South Africa. That’s where kiteboarding legends collide to push the limits of what’s humanly possible. Triple kite loops? 20-meter launches? Insanity on every tack? Cape Town is the ultimate proving ground, and Porto Pollo is your stepping stone to immortality.
So, if you’re out there throwing megaloops and borderline-crazy board-offs in your local spot, this is your chance. Entries are open until February 25, 2025, so dust off your biggest air game and register right here: redbull.jotform.com/250302101634034!
Not a competitor? No worries, this event is also a spectacle for fans. Imagine watching the top riders in Europe going balls-to-the-wall in one of Europe’s best kite spots. You’ll witness innovation in kiteboarding firsthand—monster tricks, jaw-dropping crashes (because it happens, let’s be real), and riders pulling moves you’ll try to replicate the next windy day (good luck with that). It’ll be unforgettable.
Mark those dates: March 10 to April 10, 2025. Whether you’re competing, spectating, or just in it for the vibes, you don’t want to miss this milestone event.
And who knows... maybe Porto Pollo will inspire you to book a trip and pencil in some Big Air bucket list adventures.
